An operating device and method for remotely controlling an arming device. The method includes confirming a tracking image at each firing time point of a laser beam transmitted by the range finder; based on an image correlation value of a target locked on by a tracking gate in the tracking image exceeding a threshold value, determining that the target is normally locked on; determining whether the laser beam from the range finder hits the target determined as being normally locked on based on a center value of the tracking image and a center value of the tracking gate; and based on the laser beam from the range finder hitting the target normally locked on, determining a range measurement value measured by the range finder as a true value of the target and determining other range measurement values as wrong measurement values.

Provided is an apparatus for controlling a striking device. The apparatus for controlling the striking device equipped with a weapon to strike a target includes: a display unit which displays an image captured by a camera mounted on the striking device; a control unit which controls firing of the weapon; and a manipulation unit which transmits a fire signal to the control unit, wherein the control unit calculates the number of rounds of ammunition left in the striking device, calculates an accuracy rate which is a probability that the striking device will hit the target, and determines whether the target can be neutralized by considering the calculated number of rounds of ammunition left and the calculated accuracy rate for the target.

The invention relates to an optronic system for a platform, the optronic system comprising: a support that can be rotated about a first axis, the support defining an space; an optronic head for observing part of the surroundings of the platform, the optronic head being mounted such that it rotates about a second axis, the second axis being perpendicular to the first axis, a hemispherical viewing device comprising a sensor with an optical system having an at least hemispherical field, the sensor being able to detect images of part of the surroundings of the platform, and a calculator for processing the images that the sensor detects, the calculator being in the inside space and the sensor being secured to the support.

A system for transmitting video and Controller Area Network (CAN) data over a slip ring assembly has a first Ethernet/CAN transceiver converting CAN signals with control data to Ethernet signals with the control data. A first modem converts the ethernet signal with the control data to tone sets and transmits the tone sets over the slip ring assembly. A second modem receives and demodulates the tone sets into the Ethernet signals with the control data. A second Ethernet/CAN transceiver converts the Ethernet signals with the control data to the CAN signals with the control data.
